Mole Removal
Ground Mole Removal in Phoenix, AZ
Ground moles are known for their burrowing behavior and commonly make messes of yards in Arizona. Despite their relatively small size, they can cause significant harm with their extensive tunneling. If left unchecked moles can also cause foundational damage. They leave behind distinctive volcano-shaped piles of dirt known as molehills.
Mole infestations could signal a larger insect issue that’s attracting them. Like all nuisance wildlife moles are attracted to food sources and shelter. They commonly burrow under sheds and patios. Our team at Critter Bros has the experience and training to quickly and effectively solve your mole problem in Phoenix and the surrounding areas.

Moles vs Voles: What's the Difference?
If you discover burrows or tunnels in your yard you may have a mole or vole problem. Moles and voles are often confused because they’re both small tunneling mammals, however, they have distinct differences as well. Understanding these differences is the key to managing these pests effectively.
- Moles are a part of the shrew family, voles are a part of the rodent family.
- Moles are slightly smaller than voles.
- Moles have elongated snouts, voles have short snouts.
- Moles have prominent digging claws, voles have less specialized front feet.
- Moles are carnivorous whereas voles are herbivores.
- Moles create maze-like tunnels and seldom appear above ground. Voles create surface tunnels with small entry holes and runways.
- Voles are far more likely to be seen, they prefer dense vegetation

Signs of Mole Damage
Moles are small, merely 4-7 inches in length, their impact on your yard can be devastating. They’re attracted to yards with rich soil hosting a bounty of insects like earthworms and grubs, which they feast on by ravaging the root systems of your grass. This tunneling and feeding process often results in unsightly patches of dead, brown grass, a problem that exacerbates with continued mole activity.
The most obvious indicator of mole presence is the emergence of molehills—circular mounds resembling miniature volcanoes formed from the dirt excavated during tunneling.
Moles not only decimate your lawn but can also pose structural risks. Their excavation beneath your property’s foundation may lead to cracking and settling. If you suspect a mole infestation in your Phoenix yard, don’t hesitate to reach out to Critter Bros for professional mole trapping and removal services.

Diseases Spread By Moles?
While moles are capable of carrying the rabies virus, instances of transmission are uncommon. However, the primary health concern associated with moles stems from the insect parasites they harbor, such as fleas and ticks. These parasites have the potential to transmit diseases like Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever.
Who To Call To Remove Moles in Yard?
